How exactly would that benefit us as a club? Think it's just a wind up tbh. Maybe.

One part of me want to wait for the saudis because it would be so nice when it finaly happens. But one part of me says it won't happen, so reject it now so others (Mauriss, whoever?) can come in before next season. Feel pretty sure Ashley wont come back and really wants out this time. I'm just tired of this waiting now and just want it sorted one way or another.

He shouldn't be here regardless, but under Mike he's the perfect fit, a snake happy to accept anything to keep his payday.

What exactly would piracy figures be made up of? Pretty sure it's not a thing.

Looking forward to this time next week when we're rich as fuck.

Interesting catch up in the football forum this morning

Are the commentators just purposely talking shit? 'they could have so easily took all 3 points' Bollocks.

I'm pretty sure he's already aware. You would think so but the fact they appear to have been calling the shots for 13 weeks would suggest despite being unscrupulous they carry a lot of influence. Though that credibility is purely down to the 500 million at stake, the fact remains the PL are allowing themselves to be held over a barrel by a people accused of bribery and corruption. My cynical point (tongue in cheek) was that the premier league will be receiving back handers from them, and that they couldn't give a shit how 'unscrupulous' they are.

I'm pretty sure he's already aware.

And there we have the next imaginary deadline.

Just put us out of our misery man

Why not just watch together? Someone has to keep toot outside the living room to stop my mam walking in So Babestation isn’t shot live then?

This is me as well, my Virgin Tivo box wasn't plugged in for about 2 years, only just told them to take it off my contract, literally never got used. Feel absolutely no remorse at streaming given the ridiculous prices and the number of providers you need to pay for a fraction of the games, whether they're available on legitimate platforms or not. I remember paying about £110 for everything for about 2 month before I came to my senses, they add extra for fucking HD ffs Nah, I don't feel a shred of guilt. Fuck them.

Nice. Bruce in.

Pretty sure I remember him doing exactly that the other day as well, giving it away on the half way line allowing a break.

Manquillo looks like he's going to ask for a lend of 50p

Forgot about this, what a mess Should be fun.

Dare we hope they have moved on from the issue of piracy Not necessarily. Christ give it a rest man. 'Dare we hope?' NO!! BRING IN THE NEGATIVITY HOSE!! Apologies for making relevant, valid points on a football forum in the appropriate thread related to the takeover. I didn't realise we all just had to blindly suck each other off and say how it'll definitely go through with no hiccups and there's nothing preventing it happening. After all, it's only been 13 weeks so clearly nothing's up and nothing I say could possibly be correct anyway. Thanks for putting me right. Settle down man. My point was he said 'dare we hope' and you again go off on one to try to prove it's negative. I've got no issue with anybody's thoughts on the whole mess, I swing back and forward with it myself, just this relentless need from some to try to stop any kind of positivity/hope gets my back up every now and again

:) He didn't. He said he hoped it would.

He's an absolute cunt and I can't wait till he's gone.

Why are you ignoring the other words? He didn't say it would be concluded shortly, only that he hoped it would be. World of difference. This is why I'm just leaving it at that

Please don't assume that that is what he said He said it's a highly confidential process and that he'd like to conclude it shortly. Liking it done shortly does not mean it will be. He's probably just fed up with the whole thing. He did say shortly and as such has put himself under unnecessary pressure by saying that, the media will remind him of this if not. My take is we were getting near the end game anyway and that's why he said this Under pressure from who? People who didn't listen to what he said? I'm sure he won't be feeling any pressure because he said he hopes it's done shortly.
